Cases in Business Ethics

First Edition


July 2005 | 312 pages | SAGE Publications, Inc
The Ivey Casebook Series is a co-publishing partnership between SAGE Publications and the Richard Ivery School of Business at The University of Western Ontario.

Cases in Business Ethics provides the opportunity for students not only to discuss the application of ethical theories in a managerial situation, but also to apply judgment and require them to make a decision in a real-world context. This collection of cases focuses on business decision-making, and includes both short and long, more complex cases that highlight the practicalities of business practice and ethical theory.
